The Macedonian Parliament voted on Friday to pass a resolution that changes the country’s name, from the awkwardly long “Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia” to a more viking-sounding one: Republic of North Macedonia. This is expected to solve the decades old dispute with Greece and allow the small Balkan country to keep its EU membership dreams alive. Realising that it is so easy to change a country’s name, 10 other countries followed suit, in a quest to make their own nations more attractive.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland will change its name to The United Kingdom of Incompetence

The Russian Federation will change its name to The Federation of Ex-Soviet States and the North Pole

Hungary (Magyarorszag) just voted to change its name to NemSorosOrszag

Turkey will now be called The Islamic Republic of the North Saudi Ghetto
